A lot of applications for Windows do not come with a simple option : To minimize them to the system tray when not in use. For example I always listen to music while working on my PC. So I need to be able to minimize my media player to the system tray so that the taskbar remains clutter - free.
One such app which does not come with the “Minimize to tray” option is Windows Media Player. For such stubborn applications, there is a small app called “Windows Minimizer” which enables you to minimize each & every program that you use to the system tray.
Window Minimizer is a small utility that allows to minimize to the System Tray and restore each of the desktop window by clicking system menu item or pressing user-defined hot key.
Download and run the program. You will see new system tray icon and new system menu item (”Minimize To Tray”) on every opened window. You will be able to minimize any application to the Windows system tray now.
Hope this utility helps you.

Good tool. The hot key thing will be useful.
Yeah … just press the global hotkey and zoom … the app goes into system tray.
I hope this doesnt consume much of memory.
It is using 3 MB of RAM on my system.
Hope that is not too much for you.
3MB - Isn’t that too much for this program?
Frankly speaking I do not care for this 3 MB, as long it increases my functionality. A clutter free taskbar is more useful to me.
Thanks for sharing!
Really useful for me.
And i hope you remember me, lots of question on thinkdigit thread!
Yup I do remember you …
Glad that this was useful to you.
